In the Doctor's universe, the Thing arrived with Mister Fantastic, among other superheroes during Red Nose Day 1991 to donate to Comic Relief, declaring "It's donating time!". (COMIC: The Totally Stonking, Surprisingly Educational And Utterly Mindboggling Comic Relief Comic [+]Loading...["The Totally Stonking, Surprisingly Educational And Utterly Mindboggling Comic Relief Comic (comic story)"])

The Thing attended Bonjaxx's birthday party at Maruthea. (COMIC: The Incomplete Death's Head [+]Loading...["The Incomplete Death's Head (comic story)"])

Encountering Technet[[edit] | [edit source]]

This section's awfully stubby.

Information from COMIC: Seize the Child! [+]Loading...["Seize the Child! (comic story)"] and Storm Warnings [+]Loading...["Storm Warnings (comic story)"] should be added.

The Thing faces Technet. (COMIC: April is the Cruelest Month [+]Loading...["April is the Cruelest Month (comic story)"])

In Earth-616, the Thing had Franklin Richards on his shoulder when Sue Richards arrived, having been bought flowers by Reed Richards, and introduced Alyssa Moy to Sue. As he felt the moment between Reed and Sue required some privacy, he left with Alyssa, giving her a "nickel tour" of Pier Four, showing her the hangar. He saw Reed off as he left for 30 Rock.

Grimm made dinner for Franklin and Alyssa. When he attempted to crack an egg, Hard-Boiled Henry burst out, with Grimm telling Franklin and Alyssa to leave, shortly before Henry exploded, partly destroying the warehouse. As Technet cornered Franklin and Alyssa, the Thing faced them, allowing Franklin and Alyssa to escape, but being turned back into a human by Joyboy, something he reverted by knocking Joyboy out. China Doll then shrunk Grimm, before Scatterbrain splintered Ben's consciousness, scattering it to "the furthest limits of the timestream", and Thug knocked him out. Gatecrasher then ordered Bodybag to bring him with them as a prisoner. (COMIC: April is the Cruelest Month [+]Loading...["April is the Cruelest Month (comic story)"])

Legacy[[edit] | [edit source]]

In the Doctor's universe, the Thing was depicted in a poster for Mighty Marvel Comicon 1975. This poster was on the wall of Grant's childhood bedroom. (TV: The Return of Doctor Mysterio [+]Loading...["The Return of Doctor Mysterio (TV story)"])
